About this work
Grabowski Palace & Bishop's Castle, Lidzbark Warmiński.
Lidzbark Warmiński, often shortened to ‘Lidzbark’, is a historical town located within the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in northern Poland. It is the capital of Lidzbark County. Lidzbark Warmiński was once the capital of Warmia and formerly its largest town. Lidzbark itself was a religious and cultural center, for which it was known as the Pearl of Warmia. For a long period of time it was under the control of the Warmian Bishops and it was also a major economic centre, only resigning its importance to the nearby city of Braniewo.
The Warmian Bishop's Castle is considered to be a great artistic and historical value in the world and has been recognised as a Historic Monument by the Polish government. The Scotch Mist Gallery contains many photographs of historic buildings, monuments and memorials of Poland.
